Controversial Lincoln statue is removed in Boston, but remains in D.C.
A replica of a controversial statue of Abraham Lincoln standing over a newly emancipated Black man has been removed from a public park in Boston.
Crews were seen early Tuesday morning wrapping and lifting the statue, according to footage from Boston 25 News. Over the summer, the Boston Art Commission voted unanimously to remove it by year’s end, after more than 12,000 people signed a public petition calling for it to be replaced.
